I fall IN Love again ...

My old heart flutters like young
I fall in love
Again
It is summer, but the skies darken unseasonal
A tear hits my cheeks as .....

......the first drop hits the earth

                                                   I hear the rain fall gentle

                                                                             on a lonely rooftop..

I turn on  a lonely switch,
                                     hasten to a lonelier window
I look the calender, the rain's unseasonal.

so you must be somewhere near
I hear the distant whirr
I fall in love again


I remember....

Skies break into unseasonal rains.... 

every time we meet

I remember the first time the skies broke...

I with the mischief of youth claim it
 Nature's signature on our love
You smile at my secret 
 A silence veiling it all
The second time the skies break unseasonal
  clasping hands tight

I see you become a man
I smile  your secret
I remember...
You watched me sleep
Noiselessly watching so the moments last
I know you will look away
when I wake up....
I know destiny shall decide
 I know the dreams shall last this rain 
                                                                But not another
The comfort of moments beyond
A lifetime

The gentle beat of young hearts

I live alone,I hold the door knob,

And feel the cold brass

hit my old flesh

I startle at the old warmth
As the memory of a young man's hand

Closed over mine, a rain ago
I fall in love again

I become a young woman again
Young of years gone by
 Like the rain
unseasonal, unacknowledged
I fall in love again
I know the sands hold
                       ' just' my footprints

But I know with every rain
                                                         I fall in love again.

A poem written in memory of one of the most beautiful love stories I heard from someone old yet young at heart.
